Can definitely agree that Thorburn makes an excellent one. I’ve had a few and they are very cleanly done.
I’ll second the Military and Socom as well.

I’ve literally had hundreds of liner locks over the past 40 years or so. Six, seven months ago I saw a YouTube review of the Kizer T1 exclusive. Not a big Kizer fan but liked the look of the Micarta scales and had the $79 and nothing to spend it on. So I bought one…..it’s 3.25”, 154CM coated DP, 3.3oz. And it has the finest action of anything in my knife cases….anything! I liked this knife so much that I bought another - just because. Now, I’ve got a bunch of really, really nice knives and yet I have to fight off the urge to carry this sucker every morning. It’s that good.

These work for me. The TRM probably takes the #1 spot.

Yes. Jeweled, and anodized...
But you should see the one that Rufus ordered. He went with Mokume, and it puts mine to shame...

If you have to ask...
Seriously: they are SO customizable, that any price I give would be wrong.
You would build something completely different.

I was wondering for that particular model, is you happened to know.
Before I snagged one on the exchange here, I filled out my own Olamic form or two…
The 247 isn’t my deal. Beautiful, ergonomic, but I hate the action for my own personal reasons.

Spyderco Military. I prefer Cruwear or the M4 version.
Cold Steel Ti-Lite 6.
A very well-designed liner lock, and if the Cold Steel Proof videos are to be believed, a strong liner lock as well.
Not only my favorite liner lock, but also my all-time favorite knife period.
My T6's certainly aren't my most useful or practical knives, but I have always had a thing for folding stilettos, and I consider the Ti-Lite 6 the KING of folding stilettos. If loving stilettos is wrong, then I don't want to be right
.
I don't currently have any stock T6's, they tend to get customized. So all I have to offer is a pic of a few of my customs.
